Patty Griffin, Trapeze
“Some guy broke her heart and how her heart it did ache
So she went to the tent of the lady of the snakes
Who gave her a potion and she drank it in
After that her heart never ached again”

Ohhh Holocene gets me, too. Also: Casimir Pulaski Day / Sufjan Stevens, Upward Over the Mountain / Iron & Wine, I’ll be Yr Bird / M Ward, How My Heart Behaves / Feist, and, because I am super sentimental and I was in the show every year, the Pas de Deux from the Nutcracker.

Oh, deliver me to the river of souls/In the heart of Indochine/Deliver me to a river at peace/In this twenty-first century/All those souls that floated free/In these dark war’s waters/All the souls now swim together/The French and the Viet Minh/And those American boys/The souls of the Saigon River/At peace in Indochine
